My 40th!!

I turned 40 on November 1st. It was a fabulous birthday and I am now embracing my 40ness. My wonderful friends, with the help of my equally wonderful husband, surprised me with a trip to a spa. They picked me up in the morning and took me via a limo. We, Leslie, Christi, Jen, Amy and I, drank some champagne and celebrated. When we got to the spa we had our make-up done, our nails, toes, and hair. We even had fake eye lashes put on! It was so pampering. I am so fortunate to have such wonderful friends in my life. Girlfriends are important to have and I don't mind saying that I have some of the best!

That night Christi and Jim hosted a big party for me. Plenty of gag gifts and Sangria later I celebrated my birthday. There was even poker tables set up to play Texas Hold'em. Christi and Jim put on a great party. Of course, my husband did a lot too. Thank you all. This year has been such a great memory. Hopefully I won't start loosing my memory too soon:)

I am truly blessed to have such wonderful friends and family. We are all healthy and happy. That is what counts the most. I am going to try and start living my life the most positive way I can... you are only young once so make the most of it. If it means jumping on a plane and going to Dublin for two days, than do it. Why?? Why not?? That is my motto now. Embrace life you only get one.
